Description:
This three-door armoire is a faithful reproduction in solid French walnut of armoires with alternating diamond and rectangular panels, typically made of oak in the 16th century in northeastern France. The diamond panels or pointes de diamant were also particularly common in armoires and buffet cabinets referred to as Louis XIII in style. The beauty of the natural walnut is highlighted by the simplicity and symmetry of design of this piece, made approximately a half century ago.
Fligny, Laurence, Le Mobilier en Picardie 1200-1700 (Picard Editeur, Paris, 1990)
The sturdy construction of this modern piece make it ideal for storing items in a bedroom, kitchen or library.
